Play Nice Fantasy EPL - 16/17

[SM]

9.5

No different to what people spend on DDG & Jakupovic, but I've got 2 genuine point getters and they're relying on United every week

Issue is, as others have highlighted, is having two keepers means there's more risk of picking the wrong keeper on any given week. If you stick with the same keeper each week you take the good with the bad but don't miss clean sheets.

I dont think it's that hard picking which GK to go with when there's 2 decent defensive teams.

A DDG/Jak combo means some weeks going with DDG away to top 6 sides or relying on Hull. Both terrible options

Haha, we will keep some Cs mate. Our defence isn't that catastrophic.

Only saving grace will be save numbers in losses. Can't see more than 6 clean sheets coming from Jak. And with DDG having at least 6 games where I wouldn't want him starting that's a big risk hoping the Hull 6 clean sheets come when DDG is playing a tough side

DDG usually gets decent save numbers and I'd rather trust him week in week out than rotating mandanda and butland. That said I'm sticking with valdes.

Think keepers are overrated, very rarely do keepers outscore defenders when getting a CS. Would rather Shaw than De Gea and just trust valdes to get save points.

I'm only going with Butland because of his bonus point potential. Was 2nd in the league for bonus points for keepers and missed about 10 games and is coming in at 5.0

Yeah fair enough. I'm gambling Boro will still be strong defensively at home but I guess we'll see.

Can anyone recommend a good 4.5 defender, not from WBA?

I've got Pieters in there at the moment but wondering if there's a better player there somewhere.

Check out the Sunderland guys. Moyes is pretty defensive

Callum Chambers worth a punt for the first few weeks.

I still don't know if I trust them.

That's actually are really decent shout. He'll play for a little while won't he?

He will most likely start the first game, after that its hard to say. Koscielny has just started training so will be available in a couple of weeks and who knows when the Mustafi and potentially Evans signings will be complete. You might only get one or two starts out of him but if no one else decent is available for that price he could be worth a punt.

Mee and Nsue will play every game and Burnley and MBoro should keep a few clean sheets at home

Can I get some opinions, this decision is really doing my head in..

$10.5 to spend on 1 def and 1 mid

Cedric + Drinkwater/Fischer/Feghouli
vs
Walker + Kante

Is Hernandez no chance?

Both relatively ordinary. Dont rate the bolder players in both options in terms of fantasy points

None of these options are doing much for me tbh.

Kante too defensive and I don't love any of the other mids.

I'd recommend going cheaper with your defender allowing more $ to spend on the mid.

Thanks

Any other combination of players you would recommend?

A $6 mid and a $4.5 def is also an option

 

[inwhiterooms]

Ashley Williams confirmed to Everton. Excellent.

Ashely Williams or John Stones @ 5.0 for defender if you don't have either. Craig Dawson another one if you do have both of them

Then just see whats available @ 5.5 in the mids. Should be 5-6 guys worth having a crack at.

 

[inwhiterooms]

I'm rocking Ramirez as my 4th mid right now. Plenty of potential at 5.5 IMO.

Think there are better options out there, he was rubbish in the PL for us last time out and we played him as a second striker.

I actually looked at this just before.

I've dropped my last bench def down to 4.0 (Amat) in order to fund Ramirez-Deulofeu.

Think Deu could be primed for a big season.

 

[typeclub]

I got rid of Dier and brought in Deulofeu. I have Silva I think he'll thrive with Pep.
GK: Boruc (never heard of him)
Def: Shaw, Williams, Paredes (No idea who this is or why he's there)
Mid: Miki, Deulofeu, Silva, Payet
Fwd: Negredo, Vardy, Zlatan

You've never heard of Boruc?
